International exchanges help

    I'm looking to go on an international exchange next year. I applied to California but I was rejected so now I'm looking at other options. I have a list of about 20 partner universities that I would like to go to. At one of the talks for the international exchange, we were told that we would have to go through the modules taught at the partner university to make sure they matched up fairly well with our own ones. My only problem is that I don't know how to find these and even if I could find them, I don't know if I would be able to match them to my own modules.

    Can anyone who has maybe done an exchange let me know how they sorted this out?

    No easy way to do it but to go through the websites of the uni's and see what they offer. Sometimes the modules will be listed on the School (of English for example) websites. Look at what they offer undergrads and try go from there. Best move fast though. Closing date it the 1 Feb.
    Where were you think of?

    You should be able to look up the General Catalogue of classes at any of the universities. Then just read the module descriptions and see which ones sound like the classes you'll be missing. The most difficult part was finding out in which quarter/semester the classes were offered, but unfortunately they usually don't publish that until later in the year, and then the fact there are so many different universities to look up!
